Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 33 You guys are practically cut from the same cloth!

"Haha, it's nothing." 0609 waved his hand.

"I'm getting old, and my eyesight is failing."

Although he said that, his gaze remained fixed on Bai Yuetian until Bai Yuetian and Mark walked out of the armory.

"So mysterious," 4079 complained.

At this moment, the hunters all started to walk outside.

Donnie stood in the doorway, staring expressionlessly at the dusters in the corner: "Are you blind or have no legs?"

"Get moving!"

"Do you want me to hold your hands?" Donnie's voice was extremely stern.

As soon as the words were spoken, the people began to move.

4277 whispered, "You must come back alive."

"Oh." 4068 turned his head to the side.

4079 put his arm around 4068's shoulder and said with a smile, "4277, don't worry, we've both gone down there several times and nothing has ever happened!"

On the outside elevator platform, Mark handed Bai Yuetian a tactical dagger.

"Dust people cannot use the weapons of the upper people. This dagger is a personal gift to you."

"Be careful down there. There will be hunters fighting there, so just protect yourself."

Mark patiently gave instructions.

Bai Yuetian nodded slightly: "I've troubled you with my matter. If this operation goes smoothly, I'll give you a big gift."

“What can you give me?” Mark raised an eyebrow.

"I'll let you know when the time comes." Bai Yuetian didn't know if he would be able to successfully reunite with the rescue team.

At this moment, the hunters and the dust people came over one after another.

"Hi!" Erica greeted Bai Yuetian.

Bai Yuetian smiled and said, "Good morning."

"He was lucky to be rescued, and now he's going to his death again," Donnie said casually as he passed by.

Penny stepped forward: "Donnie actually cares about you, he just doesn't know how to talk properly."

"Thank you." Bai Yuetian looked at Donnie's retreating figure.

Donnie said without turning his head, "Don't misunderstand me, I don't care about him at all."

"Sigh." Penny rolled her eyes and chased after Donnie.

The hunters walked past Bai Yuetian.

They didn't greet Bai Yuetian like before, but they also didn't say anything unpleasant, as if Bai Yuetian didn't exist.

"I'm going down," Bai Yuetian said softly.

Mark nodded slightly.

Bai Yuetian toyed with the dagger Mark had given him and walked toward the Dust People at the back of the crowd.

“1012 is coming, let’s stand with him,” 4079 whispered.

4079 also lives in dormitory 4068; the three of them are roommates.

Although 4068 and Bai Yuetian don't get along, 4079 and Bai Yuetian do get along quite well.

In 4079's opinion, Bai Yuetian has an indescribable sense of familiarity, like a friendly older brother next door.

"If you want to be a traitor, then stand with him!" 4068 said expressionlessly.

How strange!
Why are 4277 and 4079 so close to this guy, even though they've only met a few times?

Did this guy use some kind of magic?

Speaking of which, it seems that 1012 knows the Wilderness Hunter.

Who exactly is he? Is there such a person among the common people? Where did he suddenly appear from?

4068 was filled with doubt.

Bai Yuetian walked into the dusty crowd. He originally wanted to find 4079, but he found that 4068 had taken 4079 away, so he simply found a place to stand.

He pulled out the dagger Mark had given him.

rustling-

His fingers flew, the dagger spinning rapidly between them, reflecting a dazzling light, like a butterfly dancing gracefully, yet never escaping his grasp.

The common people all turned their heads in disbelief.

"Damn, that knife skill is so cool!"

Aren't you afraid of cutting your hand?

"It's so smooth, like spinning a pen!"

"Holy crap, six!"

"So handsome!"

Bai Yuetian remained calm, and after spinning around a few times, he flicked his finger.

The dagger spun in mid-air.

He drew his black scabbard. The dagger plunged in perfectly, a flawless finale.

The moment he twirled the dagger, he attracted not only the attention of the common people but also that of many hunters.

They cast friendly glances at Bai Yuetian.

One person even exclaimed in admiration, "Bai Yuetian, you're back, please teach me! I want to learn!"

Bai Yuetian knew this person.

His name is Afu, and he has a somewhat ambiguous relationship with a female hunter named Rita.

"A day of lavish meals, and I guarantee you'll learn how to cook." Bai Yuetian smiled.

Afu's eyes lit up: "It's a deal!"

The dust people looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Even the hunters want to learn from him?" "He has a name?"

"I'd like to learn too, but what is high-class food? It's not the food of the upper class, is it?"

At this moment, Mark, who was at the very front, spoke up.

"Anything can happen in the core area. I can't guarantee that everyone will come back alive, but I promise that I will do my best to ensure your safety!"

"This mission is dangerous, but the Lighthouse will not overlook everyone's efforts. The reward for contributions will be three times the usual amount!"

The dust-covered people's eyes lit up.

They were talking to each other in whispers.

"Three times the profit! If we survive, we can make a fortune!"

"So the risk wasn't entirely wasted!"

"Great, this mission is over. I need to rest for a while."

Mark pressed down with both hands.

"This is the most dangerous and meaningful mission in the history of the Wilderness Hunters. We will enter the core ecological area to search for possible ground survivors with abundant firepower."

Everyone quieted down to listen to what Mark had to say.

They already knew about the ground survivors before they even joined the mission.

Mark spoke slowly, his eyes serious: "They may still be in the core area, or they may have already left."

"If we can get in touch with them, we will have the opportunity to learn how to survive on the ground and open up new possibilities for the future."

"This means a lot to each and every one of us!"

The hunters' expressions were resolute.

While they were encouraged by the reward points, their hearts were filled with more trust in Mark and a yearning for a brighter future.

"If we find those survivors on the ground, can we also go underground to survive?"

"If we really find survivors, we will have done a great service to all mankind!"

"To forge ahead into the future, that sounds incredibly exciting!"

"Captain Mark, stop with the nonsense and let's get going!"

"Haha, we can't wait!"

The hunters were eager to try.

Mark looked around and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, get on the vehicles, prepare to depart!"

The crowd boarded the vehicles in an orderly fashion, and a few minutes later, the lifting platform lowered the convoy to the ground.

Bai Yuetian was crammed into the same vehicle with the other Dust People, his body swaying with the bumps of the car.

He looked out the window.

Yellow sand was flying everywhere, and there were hardly any plants in sight.

Everywhere you look, there are distorted faces of flesh and dirt, non-biodegradable garbage, and signs denouncing the rich of the old world.

This is the future of humanity.

This was the second time Bai Yuetian had seen these things.

He felt a little melancholy.

The only consolation is that this isn't his world; once he meets the rescue team, he can simply pack up and leave.

Suddenly, he sensed something was amiss, turned his head and saw an old man with a full head of white hair staring at him.

【DustCitizen0609】

When he first got on the bus, he noticed 0609, because 0609 was the only elderly person among all the dust people, and looked to be at least fifty or sixty years old.

It's really strange that someone so old would still be doing dangerous manual labor in the fields.

"Hello," Bai Yuetian said with a smile.

He asked, "Were you looking at me the whole time?"

0609 nodded.

He laughed and said, "You look a lot like someone. I thought I was seeing things when we were in the armory."

"Now that we look closer, you're all practically identical!"

Bai Yuetian was taken aback.

Do I resemble a person?

Bai Jingyu's face quietly appeared in his mind.

Bai Yuetian's expression changed, and he asked nervously, "Can you tell me who that person is?"

Could he be the father of this world?
Logically speaking, he should have escaped Earth. Could it be that he stayed behind, right there on the lighthouse?
0609 showed a look of reminiscence.

Back in the day, before the Lighthouse had its Three Laws, it also had a sweet love story.

Ugh.

"That person was the first lord of the Lighthouse."

0609 rolled his cloudy eyes, deep in thought, and said, "If I remember correctly, his name should be..."

"Bai Jingyu?" Bai Yuetian answered quickly.

0609 shook his head: "That's not right."

Something's not right? Bai Yuetian was a little confused.

Besides his father, who else could resemble him so much as if they were carved from the same mold?
Dad doesn't have any illegitimate children, does he?
"Let me think carefully, what's his name again?" 0609 shook his head.

Snapped!
After a long pause, 0609 suddenly slapped his thigh: "I remember now, it's Gray!"

Bai Yuetian was stunned.

“Grey Weaver, that’s the name!” 0609 said confidently.
